Answer:

Statements Y and Z.

Explanation:

The Van der Waals equation is the next one:

nRT = (P + \frac{an^{2}}{V^{2}})(V -nb) (1)

The ideal gas law is the following:

nRT = PV (2)

<em>where n: is the moles of the gas, R: is the gas constant, T: is the temperature, P: is the measured pressure, V: is the volume of the container, and a and b: are measured constants for a specific gas.  </em>

As we can see from equation (1), the Van der Waals equation introduces two terms that correct the P and the V of the ideal gas equation (2),<u> by the incorporation of the intermolecular interaction between the gases and the gases volume</u>. The term an²/V² corrects the P of the ideal gas equation since the measured pressure is decreased by the attraction forces between the gases. The term nb corrects the V of the ideal gas equation, <u>taking into account the volume occuppied by the gas in the total volume, which implies</u> a reduction of the total space available for the gas molecules.          

So, the correct statements are the Y and Z: the non-zero volumes of the gas particles effectively decrease the amount of "empty space" between them and the molecular attractions between gas particles decrease the pressure exerted by the gas.            

Have a nice day!

URGENT!!! What is the balanced form of this equation?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Explanation: This is a reaction of oxidation of H_2O_2 in the presence of acidified KMnO_4. Acidified KMnO_4 is a strong oxidizing agent.

To balance out the H^+ on the reactant side, we write H_2O on the product side.

Balancing out the following reaction gives us:

2MnO_4^-+6H^++5H_2O_2\rightarrow 2Mn^{2+}+8H_2O+5O_2

D) energy required to remove a valence electron

Explanation:

The ionization energy is the energy required to remove a valence electron from an element.

Different kinds of atoms bind their valence electrons with different amount of energy.

  • To remove the electrons, energy must be supplied to the atom.
  • The amount of energy required to remove the an electron in the valence shell is the ionization energy or ionization potential.
  • The first ionization energy is the energy needed to remove the most loosely bound electron in an atom in the ground state.
  • The ionization energy measures the readiness of an atom to loose electrons.
